Okay, here I am minding my own business when I hear thunder groan. Hmmm there wasn't a cloud in the sky when we walked in. All of a sudden the room goes black. I heasr the others around me panicing. I don't know what to do or say so I just sput off the first thing that pops into my mind.
"Uh, now would be a great time to work that alien mojo and get some light in here." I say half laughing and half scared shitless.
Liz seconds my motion and Michael does to the best of his ability.
A dim light appears before me. I study it intently as it moves over and illuminates the space where Max is sitting. She begins talking and I try to concentrate but I am unable to because of the sight she has put before me. As she speaks she forms a blank screen behind her and replays over and over again the "footage" of Jason jumping off the building. Anger fills me. I want to scream at her for what she has done to a innocent guy. He had nothing to do with this. I can only choke out one word...
"Why?!"

For the most part, I've remained silent and tried to detach myself from the current situation, wishing that I didn't feel so cold inside. It was as though since Jason's death I couldn't get warm and the more things happened, the colder I felt. I was scared. I hated the feeling. When suddenly after all the questions and demands that were made, an image appears and Jason's death is replayed as she makes herself known, I feel myself tremble and tears well up in my eyes. The relative darkness kept me from being visible to the others for which I was grateful.
It's rare for me to reveal my emotions and rarer still for me to get this worked up over something. I hear Liz as she demands that we be told the purpose immediately and hear the single word slip from Alex's mouth. Yet, even knowing that I wasn't the only one effected and wanting to try to ease minds, I can't move and instead say simply, "No more games, whoever you are. Tell us what you want so we can decide what we'll do."
My voice is shaky and nearly breathless as I tried to fight back the sobs that threatened. I hated becoming emotional. If I could see, I'd get up and start cleaning, do something to take my mind off of things. The dim light from the image just isn't enough.

Sorry guys -- I'm having a little trouble keeping up with everyone this week.

Tess moves next to me and I'm not even upset by it. What do I care about her harping on Destiny when I'm still in love with Liz? None of that matters now. Not in this crisis.
A storm comes out of nowhere and we lose power. Everyone tries to stay calm, but there's a lot of confusion. By the time Michael, Isabel and Tess get lights on, I can see that there's a moving figure on the page.
When she speaks, she's back to the riddles we'd seen on the page before and she brags about killing Jason. Brags. While suggesting that we thank her for the short school day. Talk about mixed priorities. It was a boy's life. I make a concerted effort for control and I resist tearing the paper in two or setting the blasted thing on fire.
"...do you choose to learn the meaning of my presence today....or would you rather wait until tomorrow and allow yourselves one more evening of clear minds and fruitless thoughts... the choice is yours, but understand this...either way, you will learn soon enough...there will be no escaping it"
No escaping it. Right now it does seem that way as we still have no answers. If there's really no way out, it would seem better to get started now rather than worry ourselves sick over what's to come. It's not like we'd be getting all that much rest tonight, anyway. On the other hand, it might not be as unavoidable as she says. It's possible that given time, we could find out more and discover some weakness, or purpose in this phantasm. Some way to stop her...
Looking up, I glance around the worried faces of my friends and my sister. "What do you think, guys? Jump in the madness now or spend the night working and worrying?"

Max nodded at Michael's words. He understood her desire to eliminate the waiting, although in truth he wasn't so much taking a vote as collecting input. He wanted to make sure he'd concidered all the options, but it didn't require everyone to 'vote' if they didn't chose to.
Still, he looked around the room. "Any other opinions?"

Looking over at Max, "Let's find out what the bitch wants."

I look around at Maria, Isabel and Kyle but they don't seem to have an opinion on the matter. Biting my lip, I nod at them all. I could still say that we're going to wait but truthfully, I'm not at all sure what we'd be able to accomplish. We might learn more by confronting her 'challenges' head on....
"All right then," I say, facing the animated figure on the page. "We start now. What is it that you want from us?"

"All right then, we start now. What is it that you want from us?" I hear Max say. The figure on the page stays silent, only occassionally hovering from side to side on the page.
I suddenly feel the urge to move from my fixed position. My legs begin to move of their own volition. I will them to stop but I cannot. Its like I'm not in control of my own body anymore.
When I finally come to a stop, I have no idea where I am, since its so dark I can barely see. The moment the thought crosses my mind the room begins to brighten with an unatural kind of light.
I look around and see that everyone has moved or been moved. We are all standing, lined up, paired in front of the parchment. Max with Liz, Maria and I, Alex with Isabel and Kyle with Tess.
I frown slightly, how did we all manage to get into this formation in the dark, without bumping into each other...and more importantly, how?
We all look at each other in bewilderment, each of us clueless about what's just happend when Ulyssa finally speaks...
